everyone!
I have a couple of pics of my Bulbophyllum Melting Point 'Mem. Sally Weiner' AM/AOS X longissimum 'Windy Hill' which just finished blooming. True to form, I have shots of early bloom development right up to maturity, but will only show you this beauty at it's best. The blooms measured over 8 inches long. Great details in the throat and blooms overall, and I regret I did not take close ups - (Gosh I love these 'smiles')!
Hope you enjoy -- sorry if the photos aren't that great!

Alas, the little beaut had no scent that I detected. It may have slipped one by me if it has a short 'smell period', but I tried to whiff it a few times a day. I purchased this at Hilltop Orchids, just about 1 hour away from me. Dick at Hilltop sold me this one - 8 mature pseudos and the beginning of two bloom shoots - it bloomed out over the course of about 4 weeks, with the blooms filling out over the course of about 1 week. It was great taking pics of the blooms as they got longer and longer.
The same day Dick also sold me a Bulbophyllum medusea - 6 pseudos with a bloom stalk just starting. The bloom sheath tip got slightly bruised in transit (my car) and the stalk is taking forever to get any bigger. I do notice some lengthening, but it is slowwww. I have never had these before, pretty new to the whole Bulbophyllum family, but I have always admired them from afar. The ones I wanted have always been out of my price range, but Dick gave me what I think was a pretty good deal - $30.00 on the longissimum and $35.00 on the medusea - )! I think he really undersold himself on the medusea, as the price tag was really blurred; I could not tell if it read 35, 65 or 85. The tag on the one I bought LOOKED like it said 35. When I asked him about it, he took a long time to answer, obviously counting the various orchids I had bought from him, and told me he would let me have it at $35. I am not sure that a second one would sell for that.
If anyone has bloomed a Bulb. medusea let me know of your experience with the time it took to bloom.
Thanks
Steve

Brooke;
Thanks for the beautiful photo! - It loves you!!!
I am posting a couple of pics so you can see what mine is doing. It has a brown sheath on the bloom stalk and, you can see the number I did on the tip of the bloom ... I know it is too dry in the photo, but I have to water yet today. I wanted to mount this on a cork plaque, but not until it blooms.

Again - thanks for the input. I am almost as appreciative as I am envious - and I am very appreciative!
Steve
